TheModerator:
This your argument doesn't hold water in any way. Approaching someone that have your details with a different ID is nothing but scam. He wore a mask to get that car. The coercion started when Dav found out who he was and became helpless. That's taking undue advantage of someone as his "master". It can be likened to a rape. In this case, an innocent car and Dav's mind were the victims.
I just read this paragraph above and presume you’re now attempting to shift the goalpost. I will pass.

Felicity was attacked here, even by you for doing a legit business. This one is a clear case of deception and you see nothing wrong in it?
If you call what felicity did to that fasasi guy as ‘legit business’ then it’s okay. At least I now know the type of mindset that you have as an individual. The same mindset that makes you open a fresh account to accuse people or waste energy, data and time to frantically search through almost 17 years of my nairaland profile looking for whatever you can use to attack me. You’re very vindictive, so it won’t surprise me if you tell lies and scam peoples as well.

Did you also read the part where he said the car is not in a good condition. Cars are very expensive now, worst still are the parts. You don't have to sit there and watch someone turn your car to shreds. For crying out loud, the deal is rental not HP.
A vehicle not in a good condition can simply imply that okada scratched its bumper or sides, the vehicle lost some mud guards or maybe a hairline crack on the windscreen. Am I the only one seeing that the dav00 guy never explicitly stated the amount of damage that his vehicle sustained? why not ask for clarification before crucifixion like a sensible person without an axe to grind? undecided

Leave TheModerator, I told him I’m not going anywhere until he spills his beans. Whatever is his problem with cheerfulgiver must be addressed before I allow him to continue his shenanigans here.

Maybe he thought I was kidding, I’ve been on nairaland since 2005 (ask him, he knows) and I’ve encountered lots of trolls like him. I know his type of medicine and I’ve measured out his exact dosage in my hand wink

Maybe he wanted to write stethoscope, felicity spells words out in the exact way it was pronounced in his mind grin there’s a reason why cheerfulgiver calls him a dyslexic

TheModerator:
I don't like repeating myself. Cheerfulgiver doesn't drive like a normal human. There's more to how he goes about ehailing that meets the eye.
For the record you’ve never repeated yourself, it’s just now you’re telling us this about cheerful and the way he goes about his driving. I can only speculate but I have been wrong on many occasions so I prefer hearing from the horses mouth.


Secondly, he came to the man not stating exactly who he is, pretended to be someone else until the man found out. That for me is a deal-breaker. You do not carry on doing business with someone that came to you in that kind of shaddy manner.
Did he tell the man a name that is different from his legal one? Dis he present a different address? You can own and operate up to 3 phone numbers and use each to engage with different sets/groups of people. So because I didn’t save your number on the phone I use for speaking with my friends and family you will now automatically tag me a scammer?

There's also a case of coercion here. It's just like when a master is asking the student for a favour, it will always be difficult for the student to say no. It's that type of method that cheerfulgiver is using on dav1002. It's not going to end well for dav, the foundation is already faulty, embedded in lies and deception. Best is to strip him of the car. A liar will always be a liar. He's not going to change.
grin Baba calm down, remember dav001 posted that initially when the new driver approached him for and started the rental contract he never knew the new driver was his WhatsApp group’s mentor until afterwards. Can you now see that this your reasoning of coersion has flown out the window?

Im not distracting anything . . . See leave baz001, all of us already sabi him own wahala. Na your own we need to face now.

Remember the title of this thread is to share experiences, so share something for us. That’s the reason why you settled down to advise dav1002 to take his vehicle away from someone who you might not even know from Adam and give it to another random person.

If cheerfulgiver did something bad to you trust me I’d be the first person to drag him. I’m old enough to speak my mind and forward enough to call a spade a spade.

Because he's in distraught, he's worried about his car and wondering if it's really worth it. I gave him a candid advice not borne out of malice. You're the one diverting attention, saying things that are irrelevant.
Says only you @ bolded. How are we to know? What if it’s actually out of envy and hatred that you want him to take his vehicle away from his driver?

Why didn’t you advise dav1002 to take his vehicle totally off all the ehailing platforms and put to use elsewhere since you think it’s a fruitless endeavor like a few others here do?

Why are you pushing for him to take the vehicle away from his present driver and give to another new person to use on the same roads and in the same business? what is your reason?

No sentiments in business bro. Take your car from him. He doesn't drive like a normal human being. He's too desperate, enters every corner of Lagos, day and night. Na only for inside lagoon cheerfulgiver never drive. You drive too, you know what I'm saying.

I will be candid with you, take that car away, rethink the business or give it to someone that will at least know how a car should be driven. My take.
Why should he take the vehicle away from his driver?

What did his driver ever do to you?

Omo bone TheModerator, you can’t just come out from nowhere and accuse someone unjustly here.

ME I won’t allow it.

The first time you did it I asked you to say what exactly transpired between the both of you but you instead decided to act the way you did. It doesn’t make an iota of sense.

Exactly my point. He had an agenda. He always knew who rented his vehicle and everything else he spilled here a long time ago. He had a reason to post that story here.

What he’s doing is exactly like TheModerator coming out to accuse someone of being a fraud, scam, rogue, thief etc without anything called proof and he expects every single one of us here to keep quiet and allow it?

You just keep poknosing into stuffs no wonder the moderator is always giving you gbas gbos
I brought this issue in the first place cos I fear for my car
Upon my last inspection car wasn't looking nice
though my remittance comes in timely
So I needed advice on how to handle the issue. Thanks
I poke my nose into stuffs? undecided No be here where we dey jejely you carry your story come post? Did anyone force you? Now I’m asking you questions and it has turned into poke nosing? 🤷🏽‍♂️ shebi you know there’s a literature section on this forum, why didn’t you take your story there so nobody would need to ‘poke nose’ huh

Saying you’re fearing for your car is normal as an owner but your description of the car ‘not looking nice’ at your last inspection is extremely vague.

If you want to accuse someone openly of something why not come out plain and speak up? Why do you want the rest of the people here to follow you and crucify someone over a statement as generic as ‘your car was not looking nice’ ? There are many minor and major things that you saw which you considered serious damage for you to bring it up here right?

Well as I said before, I never really sabi wetin your own issue be with your driver so I been don free you to face your business wink

Put differently, If a driver earns 60k weekly on his car, he gives it out and takes another on HP. He's now earning 90k weekly(30k from rentals and 60k of his own). He pays 30k rental to the owner of the HP car and he's back to the same 60k he was earning on one car.

Difference is, at the end of two years or however he long the HP takes, he now has two cars as against one.

This is a perfect scenario which is far from reality. I have not considered cost of maintenance and unforseen issues that may occur with the HP car.

Another thing to consider is, the vehicle he's giving out has been used at least 2 years on E-haling. Can the 30k weekly rental its bringing in sustain the cost of repairs?

The model requires a lot of thinking and careful analysis so the driver does not think he's making more money when he's actually losing

There are many reasons why people can decide to pick up another HP after completing the present one.

My car is Nigerian Used, Bolt gave an option to get a car from them on HP. I wanted to consider it because Bolt was intending to give me Toks.

My plan was to give my car out on rentals to another driver while I use major part of his remittance to offset the bolt HP.

In actual sense, someone can give his present car out to another driver while he uses the money to offset another HP at his leisure.

Good morning all,

I have an Honda Accord 2010 and I want buy Catalyst. My mechanic quoted two prices, 170k for complete and 100k for another (he would remove the part in mine and take to where the catalyst would be installed).

I want to ask if the pricing is correct. I checked Jiji and I was seeing different lower prices. I am a first time car owner and I am trying to minimise cost. (that is why i am installing the catalyst in the first place because the fuel consumption is high)

Also, my car revving is high, any solution to that?
If you rev is indeed high then you have greater issues than the catalyst.

Unless the hustle has changed there is no way you will be set free and go bound yourself to another bondage.

E go hard me to understand that it’s now profitable to go for HP than drive ur own car huh
What is hard to understand there?

You collected hp to remit N30k weekly and after a few months you complete your contract and own the car.

You then find a hardworking ‘ant’ driver and give your newly possessed car to drive and remit N30k to you weekly.

You go out and search for another hp contract to remit N25k - N30k weekly until you own the car.

You drive for the week, your own driver also drives for that same week . . . Now you have the choice of sitting at home on a few days and collecting the N30k from your own driver to remit to your new partner.

Every week you now save N30k, in a few months you pay off the current hp you have and then own the vehicle.

You then find another new hardworking ‘any’ driver to handle your newly owned car to remit N30k weekly on rentals.

Now you have two drivers remitting N60k weekly, you then go and take up a new hp contract to remit N30k to your new partner.

From this point on you can choose to sleep for a full week and still be able to collect rentals from your other two vehicles and remit to your new partner. If you’re still hardworking then you will be ‘almost’ certain of receiving N60k + weekly from all your hustles.

In a few months you clear off your current hp contract and then own 3 vehicles working for you. At this point you can still rinse and repeat or just use your skill and experience to manage the current fleet you have.

The above is just a business model one can use in this hustle as a poster pointed out earlier. So at this juncture I hope I have been able to convince you and not to confuse you . . . blah - blah - blah grin

I know you are still very much pained and now you don dey see say person wey be wan make you piss for your boss head is being exposed by a man who could no longer hold back the open deception by cheerfulgiver, you love to lick his ass though. grin
Just let me figure out how to deal with this two faced snake called pearl1910
I never had an issue with you. I only asked you a question concerning what cheerfulgiver did to warrant your outbursts at the time the instead of sharing what was paining you for resolution you decided to wast my time (and others here) by trying to ‘remind me’ of who I am and what I looked like. Did Pearl tell you he has forgotten his own name and how his face is? You have time. Whatever is eating you up and painful to your heart with cheerful will continue to torment you till you confess.

Weren’t you the one who created a fresh moniker and came here to attack another person? With names like liar, fraud, cheat, scammer etc and other words you’ve used in describing cheerfulgiver?

It’s like he was doing something you wanted to be kept hidden. You have a sinister motive here against him. till this very moment you’re yet to tell us what transpired between the two of you and nobody knows you undecided

What wrong has anybody done to rent dav1002’s vehicle and continue to remit N30k as agreed? Is it about what he said concerning the vehicle ‘being rough’ ? It won’t be fair to judge because we all don’t know to what extent he’s speaking of.

Maybe you’d now say he used another number to approach dav1002 so he’s a liar and a fraud. It will now become funny because I’d ask you if you yourself don’t have more than one phone number too. For crying out loud you operate a burner account created solely for gaslighting another forum member and you still speak of skeletons and cupboards? Anyway flex. That’s what seun and his nairaland has now become. If it was in the good old days a mod would have retired this your account.

But finally finally bro. About this story you brought here earlier today. From all what I understood

You said you had an idle vehicle.

You were not happy leaving it idle.

You advertised it in hp.

Someone took it up on a contact.

So far the person hasn’t defaulted on payments (I might be wrong)

My confusion is why the crying emoji at end of your story? Is it only because you saw who you never expected?

I mean, if the vehicle is no longer idle and you’re receiving your payments . . . 🤷🏽‍♂️ ? ?

Never bought one from a Mobil filling station. Why do they not stock it? Would have been a guarantee one is buying the real.

If authorised dealers (Mobil filling stations) are not selling, how are we sure we're not buying fakes.
The mobil oils you see in their petrol stations are the type specified mainly for the African and Middle East markets. In these two regions their climate doesn’t require the 5w20 weight and vehicles produced in these regions tend to spec the 5w40 weight instead.

Any original 5w20 mobil oil seen in Nigeria must have been imported from either Europe or America.

I have checked.
What is written in that your manual is that you should use ATF-Z1 on your gearbox and use a good DEXTRON III as a temporary alternative.

Since Honda’s ATF-Z1 has been discontinued you are now to use the newer ATF-DW1in its place.

Look for original ATF-DW1, any other one you use will be detrimental to your transmission and its longevity.

You should have transmission related codes stored on your ecu. Most of these regular Bluetooth scanners can’t pick them up. You’d need a high end scan tool. Did your D green light flash at any time?

But I suspect a solenoid is dirty. You need to know the exact one to clean up hence the scan but I’d wager it’s the AB solenoid (big switch)
